I have an early 2008 17" macbook pro. It has a fried logic board. Second time its happened.
I believe its the 2.5GHZ and it currently has 4gb of ram. It also has a bit of a dent in the screen and body, so its not in GREAT shape, but still going strong.
I am curious if I should keep this thing, get the OWC 480GB Mercury Electra 6G SSD for $300 and pay the Apple $300 Fix Anything Deal again (it's what i did last time a few years ago) and get the OWC 6gb ram upgrade
or
On craigslist I found a MBP 2011 for $600 - 2.4GHZ i5 500GB Sata HDD 4gb RAM.
